The separation of Constellation Energy Corporation, including Generation and its subsidiaries, meets the criteria for discontinued operations and as such, Generation's results of operations are presented as discontinued operations and have been excluded from Exelon's continuing operations for all periods presented.
See Note 1 — Significant Accounting Policies and Note 2 — Discontinued Operations for additional information.
Accounting rules require that certain BSC costs previously allocated to Generation be presented as part of Exelon’s continuing operations as these costs do not qualify as expenses of the discontinued operations.
Such costs are included in Other in the table above and were $28 million and $429 million on a pre-tax basis, for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
- Favorable impacts of decreased storm costs at PECO and BGE; and
- Lower BSC costs presented in Exelon’s continuing operations, which were previously allocated to Generation but do not qualify as expenses of the discontinued operation per the accounting rules.
- An income tax expense recorded in connection with the separation primarily due to the long-term marginal state income tax rate change, the recognition of valuation allowances against the net deferred tax assets positions for certain standalone state filing jurisdictions, and nondeductible transaction costs partially offset by a one-time impact associated with a state tax benefit;
- An adjustment at PECO to exclude one-time non-cash impacts associated with the remeasurement of deferred income taxes as a result of the reduction in Pennsylvania corporate income tax rate;
- Higher depreciation expense at PECO, BGE, and PHI;
- Higher credit loss expense at PECO, BGE, and PHI;
- Higher storm costs at PHI; and

(a)Reflects costs related to the impairment of an office building at BGE, which are recorded in Operating and maintenance expense.
(d)Reflects certain BSC costs related to the acquisition of EDF's interest in CENG, which was completed in the third quarter of 2021, that were historically allocated to Generation but are presented as part of continuing operations in Exelon's results as these costs do not qualify as expenses of the discontinued operations per the accounting rules.
(e)Reflects costs related to a multi-year ERP system implementation, which are recorded in Operating and maintenance expense.
In 2022, for PECO, primarily reflects an adjustment to exclude one-time non-cash impacts associated with the remeasurement of deferred income taxes as a result of the reduction in Pennsylvania corporate income tax rate.
In 2022, for Corporate, in connection with the separation, Exelon recorded an income tax expense primarily due to the long-term marginal state income tax rate change, the recognition of valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets positions for certain standalone state filing jurisdictions, and nondeductible transaction costs partially offset by a one-time impact associated with a state tax benefit.
Constellation was newly formed and incorporated in Pennsylvania on June 15, 2021 for the purpose of separation and holds Generation.
The separation represented a strategic shift that would have a major effect on Exelon’s operations and financial results.
Accordingly, the separation meets the criteria for discontinued operations.
Equity Securities Offering
On August 4, 2022, Exelon entered into an agreement with certain underwriters in connection with an underwritten public offering of 12.995 million shares of its common stock, no par value.
The net proceeds were $563 million before expenses paid by Exelon.

Unfavorable economic conditions due to COVID-19 resulted in an estimated reduction to Exelon’s Net income of approximately $245 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The impact was not material for the year ended December 31, 2021.
To offset the unfavorable impacts from COVID-19, Exelon identified approximately $250 million in cost savings in 2020.
The cost savings achieved in 2020 were higher than originally anticipated.

Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
19 rewritten, 17 added, 158 removed, 14 unchanged
[removed: After separation, reporting on risk] [added: Risk] management issues [removed: will be] [added: are reported] to Exelon’s [removed: Executive Committee, the Risk Management Committees] [added: Board] of [removed: each Utility Registrant, and the] [added: Directors, Exelon's] Audit and Risk [removed: Committee of Exelon’s] [added: Committee, and/or the applicable Utility] Board [removed: of Directors.][added: Registrant.]
To the extent the total amount of energy Exelon [removed: generates and] purchases differs from the amount of energy it has contracted to sell, Exelon is exposed to market fluctuations in commodity prices.
Exelon seeks to mitigate its commodity price risk through the sale and purchase of [removed: electricity, fossil fuel,] [added: electricity] and [removed: other commodities.][added: natural gas.]
See Note [removed: 16] [added: 15] — Derivative Financial Instruments of the Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
[removed: ComEd has block energy contracts to procure electric supply that are executed through a competitive] procurement process, which are considered derivatives and qualify for NPNS, and as a result are accounted for on an accrual basis of accounting.
PECO, BGE, and DPL also have executed derivative natural gas contracts, which [removed: either] qualify for [removed: NPNS or have no mark-to-market balances because the derivatives are index priced,] [added: NPNS,] to hedge their long-term price risk in the natural gas market.
For additional information on these contracts, see Note 3 — Regulatory Matters and Note [removed: 16] [added: 15] — Derivative Financial Instruments of the Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

See Note [removed: 16—Derivative] [added: 15 — Derivative] Financial Instruments of the Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed discussion of [added: counterparty] credit [removed: risk.][added: risk related to derivative instruments.]
See Note [removed: 1] [added: 15] — [removed: Significant Accounting Policies] [added: Derivative Financial Instruments] of the Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for [removed: the allowance for credit losses policy.][added: additional information.]
The credit policies of [removed: the RTOs and ISOs] [added: PJM] may, under certain circumstances, require that losses arising from the default of one member on spot energy market transactions be shared by the remaining participants.
[removed: Exelon and Generation] [added: The Registrants] use a combination of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to manage interest rate exposure.
The Registrants hold commodity and financial instruments that are exposed to the following market risks:
- Commodity price risk, which is discussed further below.
- Counterparty credit risk associated with non-performance by counterparties on executed derivative instruments and participation in all, or some of the established, wholesale spot energy markets that are administered by PJM.
- Equity price and interest rate risk associated with Exelon’s pension and OPEB plan trusts.
See Note 14 — Retirement Benefits of the 2021 Recast Form 10-K for additional information.
- Interest rate risk associated with changes in interest rates for the Registrants’ outstanding long-term debt.
This risk is significantly reduced as substantially all of the Registrants’ outstanding debt has fixed interest rates.
There is inherent interest rate risk related to refinancing maturing debt by issuing new long-term debt.
In addition, Exelon Corporate may utilize interest rate derivatives to lock in rate levels in anticipation of future financings, which are typically designated as cash flow hedges, or to lock in rate levels on borrowings, which are typically designated as economic hedges.
- Electric operating revenues risk associated with ComEd's distribution formula rate.
ComEd's ROE for its electric distribution service through 2023 is directly correlated to yields on U.S. Treasury bonds.
Exelon Corporate may utilize interest rate derivatives to mitigate volatility and manage risk to Exelon, which are typically accounted for as economic hedges.
The Registrants operate primarily under cost-based rate regulation limiting exposure to the effects of market risk.
Hedging programs are utilized to reduce exposure to energy and natural gas price volatility and have no direct earnings impacts as the costs are fully recovered through regulatory-approved recovery mechanisms.
The Registrants do not execute derivatives for speculative or proprietary trading purposes.
ComEd has block energy contracts to procure electric supply that are executed through a competitive
_________
The Registrants are exposed to market risks associated with adverse changes in commodity prices, counterparty credit, interest rates, and equity prices.
Historically, reporting on risk management issues has been to Exelon’s Risk Management Committee, the Risk Management Committees of each Utility Registrant, and the Risk Committee of Exelon’s Board of Directors.
Generation
Electricity available from Generation’s owned or contracted generation supply in excess of Generation’s obligations to customers, including portions of the Utility Registrants' retail load, is sold into the wholesale markets.
To reduce commodity price risk caused by market fluctuations, Generation enters into non-derivative contracts as well as derivative contracts, including swaps, futures, forwards, and options, with approved counterparties to hedge anticipated exposures.
Generation uses derivative instruments as economic hedges to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices.
We expect the settlement of the majority of our economic hedges will occur during 2022 through 2024.
In general, increases and decreases in forward market prices have a positive and negative impact, respectively, on Generation’s owned and contracted generation positions which have not been hedged.
For merchant revenues not already hedged via comprehensive state programs, such as the CMC in Illinois, we utilize a three-year ratable sales plan to align our hedging strategy with our financial objectives.
The prompt three-year merchant revenues are hedged on an approximate rolling 90%/60%/30% basis.
We may also enter transactions that are outside of this ratable hedging program.As of December 31, 2021, the percentage of expected generation hedged for the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, New York, and ERCOT reportable segments is 92%-95% and 73%-76% for 2022 and 2023, respectively.
The percentage of expected generation hedged is the amount of equivalent sales divided by the expected generation.
Expected generation is the volume of energy that best represents our commodity position in energy markets from owned or contracted generation based upon a simulated dispatch model that makes assumptions regarding future market conditions, which are calibrated to market quotes for power, fuel, load following products and options.
Equivalent sales represent all hedging products, which include economic hedges, CMC payments, and certain non-derivative contracts.
A portion of Generation’s hedging strategy may be accomplished with fuel products based on assumed correlations between power and fuel prices, which routinely change in the market.
Market price risk exposure is the risk of a change in the value of unhedged positions.
The forecasted market price risk exposure for Generation’s entire economic hedge portfolio associated with a $5/MWh reduction in the annual average around-the-clock energy price based on December 31, 2021 market conditions and hedged position would be a decrease in pre-tax net income of approximately $20 million and $243 million for 2022 and 2023, respectively.
Power price sensitivities are derived by adjusting power price assumptions while keeping all other price inputs constant.
Generation actively manages its portfolio to mitigate market price risk exposure for its unhedged position.
Actual results could differ depending on the specific timing of, and markets affected by, price changes, as well as future changes in Generation’s portfolio.
Fuel Procurement
Generation procures natural gas through long-term and short-term contracts, and spot-market purchases.
Nuclear fuel assemblies are obtained predominantly through long-term uranium concentrate supply contracts, contracted conversion services, contracted enrichment services, or a combination thereof, and contracted fuel fabrication services.
The supply markets for uranium concentrates and certain nuclear fuel services are subject to price fluctuations and availability restrictions.
Supply market conditions may make Generation’s procurement contracts subject to credit risk related to the potential non-performance of counterparties to deliver the contracted commodity or service at the contracted prices.
Utility Registrants
PECO, BGE, Pepco, DPL, and ACE do not execute derivatives for speculative purposes.
Trading and Non-Trading Marketing Activities
The following table detailing Exelon’s (including Generation's) and ComEd’s trading and non-trading marketing activities is included to address the recommended disclosures by the energy industry’s Committee of Chief Risk Officers (CCRO).
The following table provides detail on changes in Exelon’s and ComEd’s commodity mark-to-market net asset or liability balance sheet position from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2021.

The separation was completed on February 1, 2022, creating two publicly traded companies, Exelon and Constellation.
On February 3, 2022, the ICC approved a tariff that establishes the process under which ComEd will reconcile its 2022 and 2023 rate year revenue requirements with actual costs.
ComEd filed a petition with the ICC seeking approval of a multi-year rate plan (MRP) for 2024-2027 on January 17, 2023.
choice to purchase natural gas from competitive natural gas suppliers.
Exelon does not generate the electricity it delivers.
ComEd, with limited exceptions, earns a return on its energy efficiency costs through a regulatory asset.
BGE, Pepco Maryland, DPL Maryland, and ACE earn a return on most of their energy efficiency and demand response program costs through a regulatory asset.
Following the separation on February 1, 2022, Exelon is now a Distribution and Transmission company, focused on delivering electricity and natural gas service to our customers and communities.
The jurisdictions in which Exelon has operations have set some of the nation's leading clean energy targets and our strategy is to enable that future for all our stakeholders.
Exelon's quantitative goals include its Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions, with the exception of Scope 2 emissions associated with system losses of electric power delivered to customers ("line losses"), and build upon Exelon's long-standing commitment to reducing our GHG emissions.
Exelon's Path to Clean efforts extend beyond these quantitative goals to include efforts such as customer energy efficiency programs, which support reductions in customers' direct emissions and have the potential to reduce Exelon's Scope 3 emissions and Scope 2 line losses as well.

The Audit and Risk Committee oversees compliance with environmental laws and regulations, including environmental risks related to Exelon's operations and facilities, as well as SEC disclosures related to environmental matters.
The Exelon Board of Directors has general oversight responsibilities for ESG matters, including strategies and efforts to protect and improve the quality of the environment.
In addition, PECO, BGE, and DPL, as distributors of natural gas are regulated with respect to reporting of natural gas (methane) leakage on the natural gas systems and consumer use of such natural gas.
Exelon uses definitions and protocols provided by the World Resources Institute for its GHG inventory.
The majority of these operations-driven emissions are fugitive emissions from the gas delivery systems of Registrants PECO, BGE, and DPL.
On February 21, 2021, Exelon’s Board of Directors approved a plan to separate the Utility Registrants and Generation, creating two publicly traded companies with the resources necessary to best serve customers and sustain long-term investment and operating excellence.
The separation was completed on February 1, 2022 and gives each company the financial and strategic independence to focus on its specific customer needs, while executing its core business strategy.

The results of Exelon’s corporate
Generation
Generation, one of the largest competitive electric generation companies in the United States as measured by owned and contracted MW, physically delivers and markets power across multiple geographic regions through its customer-facing business, Constellation.
Constellation sells electricity and natural gas, including renewable energy and associated attributes, in competitive domestic energy markets to both wholesale and retail customers.
Generation leverages its generation portfolio to serve customers under both long-term and short-term contracts, as well as spot market sales.
Generation operates in well-developed energy markets and employs integrated and ratable hedging strategies to manage commodity price volatility.
Generation's fleet also provides geographic and supply source diversity.
Generation’s customers include distribution utilities, municipalities, cooperatives, and commercial, industrial, governmental, and residential customers in competitive markets.
Generation’s customer-facing activities foster development and delivery of other innovative energy-related products and services for its customers.
Generation is a public utility as defined under the Federal Power Act and is subject to FERC’s exclusive ratemaking jurisdiction over wholesale sales of electricity and the transmission of electricity in interstate commerce.
Under the Federal Power Act, FERC has the authority to grant or deny market-based rates for sales of energy, capacity, and ancillary services to ensure that such sales are just and reasonable.
FERC’s jurisdiction over ratemaking includes the authority to suspend the market-based rates of utilities and set cost-based rates should FERC find that its previous grant of market-based rates authority is no longer just and reasonable.
Other matters subject to FERC jurisdiction include, but are not limited to, third-party financings; review of mergers; dispositions of jurisdictional facilities and acquisitions of securities of another public utility or an existing operational generating facility; affiliate transactions; intercompany financings and cash management arrangements; certain internal corporate reorganizations; and certain holding company acquisitions of public utility and holding company securities.
RTOs and ISOs exist in a number of regions to provide transmission service across multiple transmission systems.
FERC has approved PJM, MISO, ISO-NE, and SPP as RTOs and CAISO and NYISO as ISOs.
These entities are responsible for regional planning, managing transmission congestion, developing wholesale markets for energy and capacity, maintaining reliability, market monitoring, the scheduling of physical power sales brokered through ICE and NYMEX, and the elimination or reduction of redundant transmission charges imposed by multiple transmission providers when wholesale customers take transmission service across several transmission systems.
ERCOT is not subject to regulation by FERC but performs a similar function in Texas to that performed by RTOs in markets regulated by FERC.
Specific operations of Generation are also subject to the jurisdiction of various other Federal, state, regional, and local agencies, including the NRC, and Federal and state environmental protection agencies.
Additionally, Generation is subject to NERC mandatory reliability standards, which protect the nation’s bulk power system against potential disruptions from cyber and physical security breaches.

*Annual Nuclear Decommissioning Asset Retirement Obligations (ARO) Assessment*
As described in Notes 1 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a legal obligation to decommission its nuclear generation stations following permanent cessation of operations.
To estimate its decommissioning obligations related to its nuclear generating stations for financial accounting and reporting purposes, management uses a probability-weighted, discounted cash flow model which, on a unit-by-unit basis, considers multiple outcome scenarios that include significant estimates and assumptions, and are based on decommissioning cost studies, cost escalation rates, probabilistic cash flow models, and discount rates.
Management updates its ARO annually, unless circumstances warrant more frequent updates, based on its review of updated cost studies and its annual evaluation of cost escalation factors and probabilities assigned to various scenarios.
As of December 31, 2021, the nuclear decommissioning ARO was $12.7 billion.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the Company’s annual nuclear decommissioning ARO assessment is a critical audit matter are the significant judgment by management when estimating its decommissioning obligations; this in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating the reasonableness of management’s discounted cash flow model and significant assumptions related to decommissioning cost studies.
In addition, the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements.
These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s development of the inputs, assumptions, and model used in management’s ARO assessment.
These procedures also included, among others, testing management’s process for estimating the decommissioning obligations by evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow model, testing the completeness and accuracy of data used by management, and evaluating the reasonableness of management’s significant assumptions related to decommissioning cost studies.
Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating the results of decommissioning cost studies.
*Impairment Assessment of Long-Lived Generation Assets*
Management determines if long-lived assets or asset groups are potentially impaired by comparing the undiscounted expected future cash flows to the carrying value when indicators of impairment exist.
The fair value analysis is primarily based on the income approach using significant unobservable inputs including revenue and generation forecasts, projected capital and maintenance expenditures, and discount rates.
As of December 31, 2021, the total carrying value of long-lived generation assets subject to this assessment was $19.6 billion.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the Company’s impairment assessment of long-lived generation assets is a critical audit matter are the significant judgment by management in assessing the recoverability and estimating the fair value of these long-lived generation assets or asset groups; this in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating the reasonableness of management’s significant assumptions related to revenue and generation forecasts.
These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s development of the inputs, assumptions, and model used to assess the recoverability and estimate the fair value of the Company’s long-lived generation assets or asset groups.
These procedures also included, among others, testing management’s process for developing the expected future cash flows for the long-lived generation assets or asset groups by evaluating the appropriateness of the future cash flow model, testing the completeness and accuracy of the data used by management, and evaluating the reasonableness of management’s significant assumptions related to revenue and generation forecasts.
Evaluating the reasonableness of the revenue and generation forecasts involved considering whether the forecasts were consistent with future commodity prices and external market data.
Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating the reasonableness of the revenue forecasts.

These disclosure controls and procedures have been designed by [removed: each registrant] [added: the Registrants] to ensure that (a) [added: material] information relating to that Registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is accumulated and made known to that [removed: registrant’s] [added: Registrant’s] management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, by other employees of that [removed: registrant] [added: Registrant] and its subsidiaries as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (b) this information is recorded, processed, summarized, evaluated, and reported, as applicable, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Accordingly, as of December 31, [removed: 2021,] [added: 2022,] the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of each of the Registrants concluded that such Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish [removed: their] [added: its] objectives.
However, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, any of the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting.
Management is required to assess and report on the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, [removed: 2021.][added: 2022.]
As a result of that assessment, management determined that there were no material weaknesses as of December 31, [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] and, therefore, concluded that each [removed: registrant’s] [added: Registrant’s] internal control over [added: financial reporting was effective.]
financial reporting was effective.
